Today I'll play pretend... The year is 1952 and I'm cooking for my husband in the kitchen listening to Billie Holiday on the radio. What a beautiful sound that is to my ears. My husband will be home shortly and my children are out playing. I don't have to worry about them out running around because child molestors are a rarity in our society. The house smells of homemade chocolate chip cookies and the dog is out playing with the children. My husband and I may have our arguments but divorce is not an option. He'll take me out on a date Friday night to the jazz club and I'll get all dressed up in a fancy dress and lots of jewelry. He'll look as handsome as can be and will tell me how "beautiful" I look rather than "hott". We married young and once the children came, I no longer worked. I just take care of my husband and children. We finally saved up enough money for a car of our own and gas costs us only $0.25 a gallon. We recently got a television in our house but the children would still much rather be out running amuck than watching the box in the family room. Aaahhhhh..... the joys of playing pretend.
